The nose on this one is amazing and the taste is a great funk with a grape flavor one of my top high proof tequilas!
Cask Strength | Apricot, toasted caramel, leather, clove. The overproof delivers a nice finish. This one is a blend of 3, 4, and 5 yr XAs bottled at 88.8 proof cask strength. Very good.
This is solid. A very good XA
Nose: Fresh agave leads with a light touch of vanilla and honeysuckle. There’s a gentle vegetal edge and a soft buttermilk note that brings some creaminess. White pepper and minerality sit just behind it, keeping things crisp and clean. Palate & Mouthfeel: Agave and white pepper show first, joined by that malolactic funk and buttermilk from the nose. The pepper builds steadily as bitter citrus pith adds bite and balance. Vegetal tones stay present, with a faint vanilla rounding things out. Finish: Slightly bitter with grapefruit pith and white pepper that hangs on. The agave remains steady through the finish, giving it a dry, peppery close. Final Thoughts: If you enjoy a bit of funk, this one stands out. It’s distinctive, well priced, and easy to appreciate once you settle into its mix of cream, pepper, and citrus. I like it a lot.
